1T is very furry, but nevertheless
very true, that when a man gets mad
and takes out his advertisement or
stops his paper, he naturally expects
it to stop business the next day, or the
next Saturday anyhow. 1t goes right
on cheerfully. The man that ran a
paper that suited everybody, was too
good for this world, and is now playing
harp.-Garden City Democrat.

THE Fanatic is the appropriate name
of a paper printed at Emporia, which
justifies its title by publishing lists of
all who purchase liquor at the drug
stores. This paper should widen the
sphere of its usefulness by establish
ing a department of cranks, in which
should be printed list of its promot-
ers and patrons.-Lawrence Journal.

nIssrtc1C Court.
MONDAY.

The court convened to-day
promptly at nine o'clock. The GRIM
inal cases were set for yesterday and
very few of the legal fraternity
were present. The first case called
was the state VS.. Anna Freshman,
charged with selling Intoxicating
liquors. After excusing eight men
from the first twelve called, a
jury was procured. nine of whom
were sworn in and the other
three affirmed. Col. Feighan read and
eXpounded the charge against defen-
dant. l. E. Lambert, attorney for
Mrs. Freshman made statement of
the defence. Schillingford was brought
up from the jail as witness.
In the afternoon the state produced
more witnesses, among whom were
Schillingford. His story was straight
forward and very clear. Mr.. Diefen-
dorf, express, agent was also on the
stand with the delivery books of the
company, showing the number and
amount of shipments to defendant.
The court room was well filed.
The case of the state against John
Slime, charged with stealing a horse at
Neosho Rapids sometime ago, was dis
posed of yesterday in the district
ny AlO dlJtpi prov dD
| alibi for him. The dispositions of
eight or ten citizens of Toronto were
produced that proved that Slime was in
that vicinity for week OIL
two before and several weeks after
the horse was stolen and that he had
never been away from there during
that time.
TUESDAY
The jury in the case of the State VS.
Mrs. A. Freshman went out little af-
ter 5 o'clock Monday and remained
out during the whole night. Court was
in session till late but finally adjourned
till 0 yesterday morning. A short time
after court convened the jury returned
with a verdict of not guilty. SchiIlings-
ford's trial on the same question will
come up later, when we are informed
he will plead guilty on two counts
charged against him.
The case of Amos Heller, occupied
most of yesterday and great many
witnesses were present. Heller was
put on the stand and according to his
testimony he knew nothing of the
cattle being stolen and simply obeyed
his father when he brought them tt
John Atyeo. The testimony wal
finished about half-past two and after
warm arguments on either side was
given to the jury about four o'clock
After half hours deliberation the
jury returned with verdict of moi
guilty.
The rest of the afternoon was occu
pied with the case of A. o. Wharton
VS.. Joseph Brown; before jury.
WEDNESDAY.
Wharton VS.. Brown, verdict in favol
of defendant. Jury found that at the
the time of the commencement of tht

THIS is the manner in which the Du-
buque Telegraph, democratic sheet,
tries to dodge the issue laid down by
President Cleveland for his followers
to face. 1t speaks volumes;
"The line,'' says the Sioux City
Journal, adverting to the president s
message and the next national cam
paign, 1.-THE line is sharply drawn. On
the one side is projection; on the other,
free trade" If this were the issue,
protection would surely win. But it is
not. The executive message is not a
free trade declaration, and even if it
were it would not be binding on the
democratic party. The latter is OPP
posed to free trade, not
alone because the abolition
of the duties would be destructive to
the best interests of the country, but
because the advocacy of such removal
by the democratic party would be equiv
alent to the ruin of the organization.
1t Is practicable to revise the tariff and
reduce the revenues without opening
our ports to the free admission of for
eign goods and impairing the prOtec-
tive principle. The democrats will
doubtless prefer to define their own po-
sition on this question rather than have
the Journal and other republican news
papers define it for them.

The SnEar Industry.

WASHINGTON, July 2Sth.-The Chief of
/ the Bureau OF Statistics has issued his
quarterly report, which contains, among
other interesting matter, tables in regard
TO sugar and mOlasses, showing the i'm
ports and exports eff these articles since
1899, their production in the United
States and foreign countries for the series
of years, the present tariff rates in the
leading commercial countries and the
export duties imposed by various
countries on sugar. The value of the
imports OF sugar has ranged from 18-100
per cent of the value of the dutiable inn
ports in 1925 to 10 per cent of such
values in 1875, and the duty collected
thereon has fuctuated from 4 76-100 per
cent of all customs duties on dutiable
merchandise in 1925 to % 6-100 per cent
in 1885. A table is given showing the
leading sources of customs revenue in
order of their magnitude for series OF
years. Sugar and molasses comprise
our leading source of revenue, being q
per cent Of the total collected in 1886,
iiloIltiSlSILAACS u WIZ otSAiiNAAlA5 AtSAG az
IA per cent. The highest annual average
of a specific rate of duty collected on
sugar was in 1928, when it amounted to
cents per pound, and the 10 vest in 1861,
at three-quarters of q cent per pound,
Foreign prices for sugar have been
tending downward since 1881, which
was largely caused by the worlds in
creased production.
Interesting data are given in regard to
the sugar product OF this and other
countries, and of the origin and growth
of the industry in Louisiana. The latter
had its most prosperous period prior to
the civil war, since when it has not
wholly recovered. Then, again, the
largely increased production of foreign /
countries has rendered it difficult for our
producers to compete successfully with |
them in our markets. During the periods /
just prior to the war We produced about |
one-fourth of the sugar consumed in the |
country. During the last calendar year,
however, we produced only one-tenttH

HAWAIIAN AFFAIRS ABROAD.

In an editorial note, July 22d, the New
York "Herald" remarks: "Our readers
will find elsewhere a full and instructive
review of the situation in the Hawaiian
Islands, together with summary of the
causes which led up to the recent 'revo-
luton While there is no desire on the
part OF the Republic to own this group of
islands, it is manifestly for the interests
of the country, in the language of Mr..
Webster, that that government should
not be interfered with by foreign Powers
In this connection Mr.. Websteradded that
'no Power ought either to take possess
sion OF the islands as conquest or for
colonization, and no Power ought to
seek for an undue control over the ex-
listing government or any exclusive
privileges or preferences with it
in matters of commerce. That
has been the position of Ameri-
can statesmen before and since the DAYS
Of Webster, and it is the opinion of the
American people at this time. There
are very grave reasons why the islands
should be kept free from entangling for
eign alliances and why the United States
should carefully note all political changes
which are effected.

CHINESE IMMIGRATION.

The ubiquitous Chinese are steadily
pushing their way into these Islands
Fourteen arrived by the Mariposa, and
Judging from the number Of passports
issued recently, large increase to the
Chinese population may be speedily
looked for. It would be satisfactory to
know precisely what the policy of the
present Government is on this question.
The late Government, yielding either to
pressure, or for the purpose Of getting
money for some of the costly enterprises
which they had in hand, raised the fee
to $40, and issued passports in large
numbers. We are unable TO state with
any degree OF accuracy how many such
passports were issued, but that they
were numerous the Treasury statements
show. 1t is impossible to recall these,
however, but it would be assuring to be
informed what the Government intend
for the future in regard to Chinese immi-
grafton.
The Board of Immigration has notified
the renewal of Japanese immigration
upon favorable terms to employers; is
it intended to sanction unrestricted Chi
nese immigration to reduce still further
the general average of the wages of labor
by increasing competition? If such be
the intention of the Government let it
be avowed; if it is not, the public should
be advised accordingly. And at the
same time it should be stated whether
Portuguese immigration has been sus-
pended or discontinued altogether. The
late Government authorized re-
newal of Portuguese immigration; but,
as we have stated, it threw down the
barriers against Chinese competition by
issuing indiscriminate passports. This
was an inconsistent policy, and it would
be we'll if Ministers, at the present
juncture, were to disclose their inten-
tions thereanent, if they have any.
